The Aadhaar number will be used at discretion of SBI to match the biometric information taken through biometric attendance system at the time of the examination/ interview/ medical fitness test/ reporting for joining with that stored on the Aadhaar server to establish the identity of the candidate.

The above provision is applicable in all States and Union Territories of India except the States of Jammu & Kashmir, Meghalaya and Assam.
